      If you could do a session on the memory functions that would be great. Other than the basic memory channel function, I find all of those other memory functions very confusing. Like the PMS, home channel, and how to access all the preset receiver memories. How to scan for a busy channel, and then how to place it into an open memory slot from the radio. Also the with the scan function, how to mark for skip, and to unskip. Thanks! Darrell KX4EMT

    Thanks for the video. I just got a new FT3D and programmed it with the Yaesu software after watching just now. I have watched all your other FT3D videos, and really appreciate your help. I'll try to watch your feed next Sunday. Love this radio so far. Keep the videos coming. Darrell KX4EMT, Lenoir City, TN.

    Thank you so much for this Video, I did buy the RT cable and program then when I upgraded to windows 11 it would not work. Once they started supporting 11 I could not find my cable. This video saved me from having to buy it again and shame on my local shop for telling time I needed it when I was getting started in HAM.

    • @ModernHam
      @ModernHam  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's a good point I have against RT Systems. It's marketed so hard that one would think it's required, and very expensive if you take into account all of the cables and versions.

    This video is FANTASTIC! I spent 4 hours trying to get CHiRP and the RTSystems software for the FT3D working, no luck. Why? The programming cable that comes with the radio isn't a programming cable! Thank You MorernHam! ADMS does seem to work. Now I just have to transfer the rest of my channel list (that I use for other HTs) into ADMS, save it to the MicroSD, upload it into the FT3D's memory and all should be good. BRILLIANT!😃

  • @SGrosch

I wonder if the lock has something to do with the size of the sd card? I thought I had read 32gb was the max. Regardless, thanks again!

    I always baffled by how terrible Yaesu is at software though. They clearly rely on people spending the extra €40 or so on RT Systems, which when you have already spent a fair chunk on a radio is a bit hard to swallow. Funny how a crappy €25 Baofeng manages to have working software and yet Yaesu can't.
